So big sun today so after class went to La Boca, one of the older parts of BA together with San Telmo... But more or less all the people I have talked to here in BA, people in the building and tango people has more or less adviced me not to go.. for two reasons, first safety and second its really a tourist trap... so if you dont think you absolutely need to see those colourful houses (which I did) .. so skip it. Everything I had been told was confirmed, you cant move or look on something without having people around you that want to sell you something, an object, a seat in a resto, have your picture taken with a tango dancer etc etc.. "where are you from.. germany? .. norway?, denmark? sweden.. yeah.. Zlatan yeah!!!" ...x23... something like that.. You are moving in a space being like 300x300meters.. as soon as you go outside that area.. there is sitting group of youngsters.. just waiting on you.. But as long as you stay within the mainstreets its ok.. and keep an eye on your things.. I havent seen so many police officers per square meter so far as in La Boca.. within the mainstreets.. So I came in a cab, stayed for an hour and left in a cab..
Couldnt resist, below picture as thanks for product sponsoring from Ellos sport team.. my blue light weight down jkt... my tango teacher wants one as well...
